<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/tom-hanks">Tom Hanks</a> made it clear he&#8217;s upset that he only learned about the Tulsa Massacre two years ago, and said he wanted to know who decided to make an &#8220;editorial&#8221; choice about what was &#8220;appropriate&#8221; for him to learn in school.
During the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/beyond-that-now-tom-hanks-says-fans-wouldnt-accept-him-playing-gay-man-in-philadelphia-now">66-year-old</a> actor&#8217;s recent appearance on the &#8220;Another Act&#8221; <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bww22SBitGo">podcast</a>, Hanks talked about growing up as a child in Oakland, California, as he referenced why he wrote an op-ed last year advocating for the teaching of the race-based massacre for <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/04/opinion/tom-hanks-tulsa-race-massacre-history.html">The New York Times</a>. It starts at the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bww22SBitGo">12:31</a> minute mark.
&#8220;I read a New York Times piece on a hundred-year-old survivor of the Tulsa Massacre, and my question was this, &#8216;What’s the Tulsa Massacre?’” Hanks told the host. &#8220;You know, I was taught American history every three years growing up … how is it that it wasn&#8217;t until two years ago that I heard about the Tulsa Massacre?”

&#8220;How is that possible? &#8230; I heard about all kinds of disasters in which people died,&#8221; he added. &#8220;But I had never heard about this thing that happened in 1921.&#8221;
&#8220;I tell you, at the age of 10, when I was in fifth grade, living in Oakland, California, that would&#8217;ve been a moment of enlightenment for me,&#8221; the superstar actor continued. &#8220;That would&#8217;ve told me something very, very different about the city I lived in. Not just American history or the city of Tulsa.&#8221;
Hanks explained how it made him “mad&#8221; that somebody had “made an editorial process&#8221; about what was and was not &#8220;appropriate&#8221; for him to learn in school about &#8220;our own American history” — and that it took him 54 years to find this out, calling it &#8220;not right&#8221; and a &#8220;disservice&#8221; to all of America.
In the NYT piece, the &#8220;Cast Away&#8221; star talked about how in all his years of studying history in school, he never learned &#8220;about how, in 1921, a mob of white people burned down a place called Black Wall Street, killed as many as 300 of its Black citizens and displaced thousands of Black Americans who lived in Tulsa, Okla.&#8221;
He also wrote that, &#8220;America’s history is messy but knowing that makes us a wiser and stronger people. 1921 is the truth, a portal to our shared, paradoxical history.&#8221;
The comment was part of a larger interview about the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/elvis-biopics-black-roots-are-real-not-woke">actor&#8217;s</a> current role as Colonel Tom Parker on Baz Luhrmann&#8217;s &#8220;ELVIS&#8221; movie. Parker was Elvis Presley&#8217;s manager.
The movie is &#8220;Luhrmann&#8217;s biopic of Elvis Presley, from his childhood to becoming a rock and movie star in the 1950s while maintaining a complex relationship with his manager, Colonel Tom Parker,&#8221; a description on <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3704428/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1">IMDb</a> read.

Woke activists are calling for anthropologists to stop classifying human remains as &#8220;male&#8221; or &#8220;female&#8221; as well as by racial ancestry.
Archeologists and anthropologists, including those who specialize in criminal forensics, frequently use information about human remains, such as the size and shape of the bones, to determine the gender or race of the deceased individual. This information is often vital to criminal investigations as well as important to understanding ancient civilizations.
Now though, some woke <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/gender-activists-push-to-bar-anthropologists-from-identifying-human-remains-as-male-or-female/">scholars say</a> the time for classifying human remains by gender and race is gone since we cannot know how the deceased person identified, even if they lived hundreds of years ago.
One group called the Trans Doe Task Force <a href="https://transdoetaskforce.org/trans-doe-task-force-presenting-at-tpath-conference-converging-crises-in-transgender-activism-health-and-rights-in-2021/">says</a> it actually maintains its own database of missing and unidentified people who the group thinks could be transgender or &#8220;gender-variant&#8221; because most databases don&#8217;t allow you to compare missing to unidentified &#8220;across different binary sex categories.&#8221;
The group says it combs databases of the missing and unidentified looking for &#8220;contextual clues such as decedents wearing clothing culturally coded to a gender other than their assigned sex.&#8221;
The transgender-led non-profit says it aims to “explore ways in which current standards in forensic human identification do a disservice to people who do not clearly fit the gender binary.”
Last year, a study posited that the medieval remains of one individual <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/history/2021/08/11/nonbinary-ancient-medieval-finland/">suggested</a> they could be non-binary since the body was probably male, but the person was buried in feminine clothes. However, that individual likely had XXY chromosomes, or Klinefelter syndrome, which can cause low testosterone.
One professor actually argued earlier this year that there are actually “no neat divisions between physically or genetically ‘male’ or ‘female’ individuals.” 
University of Kansas Associate Professor of Anthropology Jennifer Raff made her eyebrow-raising case for the idea in her February book &#8220;Origin: A Genetic History of the Americas.&#8221;
The idea of a gender binary was “imposed by Christian colonizers,” she claims.
A self-reported master&#8217;s archaeology student in Canada called it &#8220;bullshit&#8221; that archaeologists assign gender to human remains based on their biology.
&#8220;My trans+non-binary friends: you might know the argument that the archaeologists who find your bones one day will assign you the same gender as you had at birth, so regardless of whether you transition, you can&#8217;t escape your assigned sex. Let me tell you why that&#8217;s bullshit,&#8221; tweeted Emma Palladino.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Palladino went on to say that archaeologists still make &#8220;assumptions&#8221; about a person&#8217;s gender and identity, and there&#8217;s &#8220;absolutely more work to be done&#8221; to fix that, saying the concepts of sex, gender, and identity are &#8220;culturally and spatially relative.&#8221;
&#8220;Labelling remains &#8216;male&#8217; or &#8216;female&#8217; is rarely the end goal of any excavation, anyway. The &#8216;bioarchaeology of the individual&#8217; is what we aim for, factoring in absolutely everything we discover about a person into a nuanced and open-ended biography of their life,&#8221; Palladino said.
&#8220;And even IF some sh***y archaeologist in the future misgenders you, that will never change who you were, regardless of whether you&#8217;ve medically or socially transitioned, regardless of anything. You are you, a dignified human, and always will be, even in death,&#8221; she concluded
Some archeology scholars have criticized the push to disregard biological sex in classifying human skeletons.
San Jose State archaeology Professor Elizabeth Weiss <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/gender-activists-push-to-bar-anthropologists-from-identifying-human-remains-as-male-or-female/">told</a> The College Fix the movement amounts to “ideologically-motivated fudging.”
Weiss also told the outlet that, “sexing skeletal remains is a critical skill in forensics and any diminishing of this skill will negatively impact criminal investigations, denying the victims and their families justice.”
Meanwhile, some activists are focused on erasing race from human remains classifications, rather than biological gender.
A January <a href="https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ajpa.24212">study</a> claimed forensic anthropologists have not taken into account the &#8220;racist context&#8221; of the American criminal justice system.
Beyond that, trying to figure out the ancestry of human remains might hurt efforts to identify them because of &#8220;entrenched racial biases,” claimed the <a href="https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ajpa.24212">study</a> by Elizabeth DiGangi of Binghamton University and Jonathan Bethard of the University of South Florida.

A rally for a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/minnesota">Minnesota</a> man killed by police took a dramatic turn Saturday when the mom he had shot at hours before he was fatally shot crashed the protest to call Andrew &#8216;Tekle&#8217; Sundberg “a bad guy.”
In a dramatic scene caught on video outside the apartment complex where Sundberg, 20, was killed, an anguished woman identified as Arabella Yarbrough, 24, demanded to know why Sundberg was deemed a “good guy” all of the sudden. She accused Sundberg, who lived in the same complex, of nearly killing her and her children in the incident last week.
“I have black children,” she shouted over a protest leader who was using a megaphone to rally a small crowd gathered outside some apartments. &#8220;I’m a woman of color. If I would’ve lost my life, would you guys do this for me?”
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Video: Mom shot at by Tekle Sundberg interrupts rally., expresses outrage at protesters" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/-BbBSRACOKY?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
“Yes ma’am,” the leader replies in the eight-minute clip.
“If I would have died, would he be a bad guy then?” she continues. “Why is he not a bad guy now?”
Yarbrough explained that she had been cooking dinner for her children when bullets came through their apartment door, adding that there were shell casings all over the hallway outside after the incident.
Sundberg was killed early Thursday after a standoff that began late Wednesday. He allegedly shot into the apartment where Yarbrough lived with her two children, then fired again at cops who rushed the family to safety.
Sundberg’s father, Mike, had tried to help negotiate the surrender of his son, who was barricaded in his apartment, but the six-hour standoff ended at 4:30 a.m. when two police snipers on a rooftop across the street fatally shot him. On Saturday, the elder Sundberg, who was at the protest, was seen trying to comfort Yarbrough as she railed against the demonstrators.
Sundberg’s mother, Cindy Sundberg, said her son, who they adopted from Ethiopia, was experiencing a “mental health crisis” when police responded to a report of shots fired in his apartment building, according to video <a href="https://twitter.com/AttorneyCrump/status/1548323063745245184?s=20&amp;t=I2w3fmTwWDxDsZ7h9eTy7w" data-ylk="slk:released by Crump on Twitter" data-rapid_p="8" data-v9y="1">released by family attorney Ben Crump on Twitter</a>.
The Minneapolis Police Department (MPD) <a href="https://www.minneapolismn.gov/news/2022/july/july-14-officer-involved-shooting/">reported</a> that a mother with two young children called claiming that someone had shot into her apartment and that officers witnessed additional shots when they arrived on the third floor of the building.
“MPD Crisis Team Negotiators and MPD SWAT responded and attempted negotiations throughout the night and early morning hours. These attempts included identifying and calling the man’s cell phone as well as bringing the man’s parents to the scene to help,” wrote the MPD in its report.
The shooting of Sundberg, a black man, has further inflamed race relations in Minneapolis, where two years ago, George Floyd was killed by a police officer in an incident that touched off a summer of rioting around the nation. The police officer who killed Floyd was prosecuted and found guilty of murder.
The Sundbergs <a href="https://mndaily.com/273060/news/family-waiting-for-answers-after-police-fatally-shoot-20-year-old/">told reporters</a> they don&#8217;t believe police would have shot one of their white biological children in the same situation.
“Everyone knows had it been a white person in that building they would have talked him out, they would have waited,” said Cindy Sundberg, who has nine children total with her husband, Mark.
Protesters on Saturday demanded that the police release video from the incident. The Minneapolis City Attorney&#8217;s Office is <a href="https://facebook.com/MinneapolisPoliceDepartment/posts/pfbid0ZMeXeh6YHoDmkyYsZ6MusftALcdktS6KExBrQU6DGuk39zETs4v5d4CL45TpnAafl">reviewing the body camera footage</a> of the shooting. It will be shown to the family first before it is released to the public.

A disturbing video purportedly taken in St. Paul, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/minnesota">Minnesota</a>, last week shows diaper-clad black toddlers cursing and attacking <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/police">police officers</a>.
AlphaNews.org posted the video online and said it was shot as the officers attempted to execute a search warrant for a murder suspect. Two toddlers can be seen punching, kicking, cursing, and throwing rocks at them.
“F—off,” one child who looks to be no older than 3 or 4 says to an officer. “Bitch!” another one repeats while flailing at an officer’s leg.

As the pint-sized police haters rain harmless blows with their tiny fists, a voice can be heard in the background exhorting the children and calling a black officer on the scene a “deep-fried Oreo head.”

Marlin Briscoe, the first <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/race">black player</a> to ever start at quarterback in what is now known as the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/nfl">NFL</a>, died Monday, The Associated Press <a href="https://apnews.com/article/denver-broncos-miami-dolphins-nfl-sports-nebraska-f150758fd9b74fcb26de841621077df1">reported</a>. He was 76.
Briscoe starred as a signal-caller at Omaha University in the 1960s before being drafted in 1968 by the Denver Broncos, who wanted him to play defensive back. Briscoe said he would quit if he wasn’t given a shot at quarterback, and his persistence was rewarded when the team let him. He started five games as a rookie, passing for 1,589 yards and 14 touchdowns and finishing second in rookie of the year voting. But he never got another shot at playing quarterback.
&#8220;It was at the time when Black quarterbacks were being denied, so you tried to make sure you were best prepared for the opportunity when it came,&#8221; James Harris, another black quarterback who later started for the Los Angeles Rams, told the AP.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Briscoe’s daughter, Angela Marriott, said her father died of pneumonia at a hospital in Norwalk, California, where he had been hospitalized with circulatory problems.
&#8220;He&#8217;s made an immense contribution to the sport,&#8221; Marriott said. &#8220;I hope that he continues to get recognized for the contributions that he made. He was so proud of that achievement.&#8221;
When the Broncos wouldn’t let him compete as a field general, Briscoe asked to be released. He resurfaced with the Buffalo Bills, where he became a Pro Bowl wide receiver in 1970. That year, Briscoe caught 57 passes for 1,036 yards and eight touchdowns.
Buffalo traded Briscoe to the Miami Dolphins in 1972, and he won two Super Bowls in three years with his new team. He was a key member of the legendary 1972 team that went 17-0.
&#8220;Marlin was a pioneer who shattered barriers, making history as the first Black starting quarterback in the Super Bowl era,&#8221; the Broncos said in a <a href="https://www.denverbroncos.com/news/broncos-mourn-the-passing-of-marlin-briscoe-modern-pro-football-s-first-black-st">statement</a> Monday. &#8220;He paved the way for countless others and created an indelible legacy, including through our Marlin Briscoe Diversity Coaching Fellowship. Our deepest sympathies go out to Marlin&#8217;s family, friends, and former teammates.&#8221;
Although Briscoe only had a brief shot at playing quarterback, he lived to see several black quarterbacks achieve greatness in the league, including Hall of Famer Warren Moon, Randall Cunningham, 1988 Super Bowl MVP Doug Williams, and current superstars Patrick Mahomes, of the Kansas City Chiefs, and Russell Wilson, who was recently acquired by Briscoe’s old team, the Denver Broncos.

A large number of black White House staffers have reportedly departed or plan to depart from President Joe Biden&#8217;s administration since late last year, describing a White House that does not support them or offer them good promotion opportunities.
Some of the black Biden staffers have coined the term &#8220;Blaxit&#8221; to describe the exodus from the administration, a current White House official and a former White House official <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2022/05/31/biden-white-house-black-staffers-00035931">told POLITICO</a> — an administration that has thus far prided itself on its discussion and focus on racial issues.
Nine current and former black White House officials, who spoke anonymously out of fear of reprisal, told the publication that the &#8220;Blaxit&#8221; has hurt morale in the administration — &#8220;compounding problems that exist elsewhere,&#8221; POLITICO reported. These officials said that both mentorship and promotions in the administration are &#8220;exceptionally rare,&#8221; according to the publication.
“We’re here and we’re doing a lot of work but we’re not decision-makers and there’s no real path towards becoming decision-makers,” one current black White House official told the publication. “There is no real feedback and there’s no clear path to any kind of promotions.”
Another former black White House official said that some “people have not had the best experiences and a lot of that has to do with the dearth of Black leadership.&#8221;
“Think about any workplace,&#8221; that official said. &#8220;Black folks need some person to go to, to strategize and be a mentor, and we just don’t have as many folks who can be mentors to us.”
“They brought in a ton of Black people generally to start without ever establishing an infrastructure to retain them or help them be successful,” a third current black White House official told POLITICO. “If there is no clear infrastructure of how to be successful, you become just as invisible in this space than you would be if you were not in it.”
The publication reported that some black White House staffers fear that the departure of black staffers exposes the White House&#8217;s larger mistakes.
“They gave us a mandate to execute on all the things that we promised and not only are we not delivering on that front, but then we’re not also delivering to the staff that came in on the basis of that promise,” a current official told POLITICO. “People go home to their families or their communities, and what can they point to specifically? They can’t even point to their own experiences as positive.”
Vice President Kamala Harris&#8217; senior adviser Symone Sanders left the administration for MSNBC in December, the publication reported, and since then, a whole slew of Harris aides have followed her lead: Tina Flournoy, Ashley Etienne, and Vincent Evans.
Public engagement head Cedric Richmond has also left the administration, POLITICO reported, along with public engagement aide Carissa Smith, National Security Council senior director Linda Etim, gender policy aide Kalisha Dessources Figures, associate counsel Funmi Olorunnipa Badejo, and digital engagement director Cameron Trimble.
Chief of Staff Ron Klain has lost two advisors, Elizabeth Wilkins and Niyat Mulugheta, according to POLITICO, noting that press assistant Natalie Austin, presidential personnel aides Danielle Okai, Reggie Greer, and Rayshawn Dyson, and National Economic Council aides Joelle Gamble and Connor Maxwell have each departed the administration.
White House officials told the publication that deputy White House counsel Danielle Conley and Council of Economic Advisers aide Saharra Griffin are also planning to leave soon, among others.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre assured POLITICO that Biden is &#8220;incredibly proud to have built what continues to be the most diverse White House staff in history, and he is committed to continuing historic representation for Black staff and all communities.”
“This is a normal time for turnover across the board in any administration and Black staff have been promoted at a higher rate than staff who are not diverse,&#8221; Jean-Pierre added.
A White House official also told POLITICO that about 14% of the current White House staffers identify as black, noting that the number of black staffers is expected to increase and that 15% of the Biden administration&#8217;s black staffers have been promoted over the last year.

Spencer Overton, president of the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies, told POLITICO he had &#8220;heard about an exodus of Black staffers from the White House&#8221; and that he was &#8220;concerned.”
“Black voters accounted for 22 percent of President Biden’s voters in November 2020,&#8221; Overton said. &#8220;It is essential that Black staffers are not only recruited to serve in senior, mid-level and junior White House positions, but are also included in major policy and personnel decisions and have opportunities for advancement.”
The publication notes that a number of the staffers who left the administration said they did so on good terms and that they left for other opportunities or because they needed more family time, like press assistant Natalie Austin, who told POLITICO in an email that she &#8220;worked for both the President and the Vice President during the campaign cycle, and considered the chance to serve the American people in the Biden-Harris White House nothing short of an honor.”
“I loved my experience on the press team, and left because I wanted a chance to spend more time with family after nearly three years straight of campaigns and government work,&#8221; Austin said.

Zac Kriegman had worked at Thomson Reuters for more than six years, most recently as a director of data scientists. Concerned with data and statistics, Kriegman and his team advised numerous other divisions within company.
But in 2020, Kriegman noticed changes within the company, with coworkers publishing numerous articles about “White Privilege” on the company’s internal collaboration platform. When the Black Lives Matter (BLM) riots broke out that summer, the platform was filled with support for the organization without any question as to the narrative being told about race in America.
“This concerned me. I had been following the academic research on BLM for years (for example, <a href="https://sci-hub.hkvisa.net/10.1007/s10940-019-09438-5">here</a>, <a href="https://sci-hub.hkvisa.net/10.1016/j.jcrimjus.2019.101653">here</a>, <a href="https://sci-hub.hkvisa.net/10.1177/1948550618775108">here</a> and <a href="https://sci-hub.hkvisa.net/10.1080/0735648X.2018.1547269">here</a>), and I had come to the conclusion that the claim upon which the whole movement rested—that police more readily shoot black people—was false,” Kriegman wrote in an article published on Bari Weiss’ <a href="https://bariweiss.substack.com/p/i-criticized-blm-then-i-was-fired?s=r">substack</a>. “ The data was unequivocal. It showed that, if anything, police were slightly less likely to use lethal force against black suspects than white ones.”
Kriegman discovered that, based on a database of police shootings compiled by The Washington Post, police have fatally shot 39% more unarmed white people than black people in the past five years. BLM activists have insisted, however, that since there are six times as many white people in America as black people, police should be shooting 600% more. Anything less, Kriegman wrote, is evidence to the activists of police bias.
Kriegman suggested that such a comparison isn’t as accurate as comparing “Black suspects who pose a grave danger and white suspects who do the same,” but wrote that there isn’t reliable data for such a comparison. Instead, he used Deputy District Attorney for Los Angeles County Patrick Frey’s calculations based on FBI data that found “black Americans account for 37 percent of those who murder police officers, and 34 percent of the unarmed suspects killed by police. Meanwhile, whites make up 42.7 percent of cop killers and 42 percent of the unarmed suspects shot by police—meaning whites are killed by police at a 7 percent higher rate than blacks.”
Kriegman broadened the analysis to include armed suspects, finding that with those numbers included, whites are shot at a 70% higher rate than blacks. He then mentions the only study that looks at the rate at which police use lethal force across racial groups, conducted by Harvard economist Roland Fryer. Fryer, who is black, tried to prove BLM’s narrative in 2016, but ended up disproving it by finding that, while black Americans and Latinos may experience some amount of police force, they are slightly less likely to be shot by police than whites.
“Unfortunately, because the BLM narrative was now conventional wisdom, police departments, under intense scrutiny from left-wing politicians and activists, scaled back patrols in dangerous neighborhoods filled with vulnerable black residents. This led to soaring violence in many communities and thousands of needless deaths—otherwise known as the Ferguson Effect,” Kriegman wrote.
When he shared his findings on Thomson Reuters’ collaboration platform, he was met with vitriol by white coworkers who lobbed insults at him rather than provide “even a single substantive challenge to the facts I was citing.”
Kriegman wrote that his post was removed when he stated his concerns and told that if he discussed the issue on internal company communications channels, he would be fired. Without a resolution, Kriegman emailed colleagues and company leadership discussing the attacks. The next day he was told by Human Resources that he no longer had access to his company computer or communications systems. Three days after that, he was fired.
“A decade ago, my experience at Thomson Reuters would have been unthinkable. Most Americans probably think it’s still unthinkable. That’s what makes it so dangerous. Most of us don’t understand how deeply compromised our news sources have become. Most of us have no idea that we are suffused with fictions and half-truths that sound sort of believable and are shielded from scrutiny by people whose job is to challenge them. This is true, above all, of my fellow liberals, who assume that only Republicans complain about the mainstream media. But this is not a partisan issue. This is a We The People issue,” he wrote.
Correction: A previous version of this article incorrectly stated that Kriegman worked for Reuters, the wire service, when he in fact worked for Thomson Reuters, the business information services company.

A Virginia parent is speaking out against a school district’s &#8220;anti-racism&#8221; policy and curriculum, saying that school officials ignored his concerns with curriculum being presented to his son that the father says is racist and not Constitutional. 
Last week, Judge Claude Worrell, of Charlottesville Circuit Court, dismissed a case against the Albemarle School District filed by several groups of parents concerned about curriculum they say is racist and discriminates against students based on color. 
Alliance Defending Freedom lawyers, who are representing the parents, are awaiting a written dismissal and say they will likely appeal the decision. 
Matt, one of the parents involved in the suit, spoke with The Daily Wire about his concerns with the district’s anti-racism policy and says it has been intertwined throughout classes. Matt, who attended the same school that his son now attends, says he believes the school is encouraging kids to focus too much on skin color. 
“As a parent here, who’s against racism, I’m against this conversation because now we’re having kids who are in middle school focus on the color of their skin,” he said, adding that divisive concepts should not be being taught in schools, especially middle schools. 
Matt said he was able to have his son removed from the homeroom class where he said the teen was being exposed to some of the “divisive concepts,” but wasn’t able to completely protect him because he said the “concepts [are] woven into every subject.”
He stated that his son was “personally attacked” in English class because of his beliefs related to the topic. 
The district’s <a href="https://www.k12albemarle.org/our-division/anti-racism-policy/policy">policy</a> can be found online, and gives definitions of concepts like “anti-racism,” “individual racism,” and “institutional racism.”
The policy says that institutional racism “occurs within institutions and organizations, such as schools, that adopt and maintain policies, practices, and procedures that often unintentionally produce inequitable outcomes for people of color and advantages for white people.”
Other <a href="https://www.k12albemarle.org/our-division/anti-racism-policy">resources</a> available on the district’s website include a document asking “Am I an anti-racist?” and an anonymous alert system where people can report alleged racism. 
A spokesman for Albemarle County School District, Phil Giaramita told The Daily Wire that Judge Worrell “supported the division’s anti-racism policy” in his ruling. 
“We obviously were pleased that the court agreed with our position that plaintiffs failed to show concrete harm to students from the policy&#8217;s implementation. As the Judge noted, there was no justiciable question for the court to decide, meaning there were no claims that could be decided based upon legal principles,” he added.
Kate Anderson, one of the lawyers for the parents, said that students in one exercise were told to put “white” and “Christian” into a “dominant box” and then encouraged to “dismantle the box” and take an anti-racist pledge. 
According to Anderson, several teachers are upset with the new focus on race instead of academics, especially when getting students back on track after the pandemic. 
“The school policy was directed at bringing kids to view themselves and everything around them purely through the lens of race, and it was personalizing it by telling students that only white people can be racist. That all the white students are personally and individually responsible for racism,” she said. 
Anderson added that minority students were told they could not succeed because of their race and because of oppression. According to Matt, several of his co-plaintiffs are minority parents and he is worried that their children have “felt isolated” because of the policy implementation. 
He also claims that he spoke to the school’s principal, vice principal, and superintendent and says he got little feedback. He said he felt “ignored” and believed the curriculum being used was against the Constitution.  
Despite the legal setback, Matt said that he would be happy if, “at the end of the day, these racist concepts, curriculum are not taught.”
He added, “Kids shouldn’t have to be told to focus on their skin color.”

Officials with the public library system in Madison, Wisconsin, are defending an upcoming &#8220;movement and mediation class&#8221; that the library says is &#8220;intended&#8221; for elder racial minorities in the community. Critics of the class say that the program runs afoul of Wisconsin&#8217;s public accommodation law by making it clear the program is meant for residents who identify as &#8220;black, indigenous or people of color.&#8221;
Starting Friday, May 6, Goodman South Library and South Madison Library in the Badger State&#8217;s capital city will begin <a href="https://www.madisonpubliclibrary.org/new/movement-meditation-classes-seniors">holding</a> a &#8220;Movement and Meditation Class for Seniors&#8221; each Friday during the month of May. It will be hosted by KLJ Movement, a &#8220;professional performance and dance company that embraces the influence of black and brown people in the world of dance.&#8221;
A spokesperson for the library admitted to The Daily Wire that while the class is open to all, it is specifically designed for non-white individuals over the age of 55.
&#8220;The intent is not to be racist or anti-white, but to make people of color, particularly seniors in the neighborhoods those two libraries serve, feel comfortable in coming to those programs, knowing that they&#8217;ll be in a place where others who look like them will be moving and meditating with them,&#8221; Tana Elias, digital services and marketing manager for Madison Public Libraries, said in an email sent to The Daily Wire when asked for her response to critics.
&#8220;White people are not excluded from the event, but they are the majority of our total program audience,&#8221; she added. &#8220;This program is an intentional effort with a community partner to include a segment of Madison&#8217;s population that we know we&#8217;re not serving as regularly, and who are more likely to suffer from poor health.&#8221;
Not everybody sees it that way.
On Thursday, Dan Lennington, an attorney with the Wisconsin Institute for Law &amp; Liberty, flagged the upcoming class on Twitter, comparing it to &#8220;critical race yoga.&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Critical Race Yoga? Madison, WI Public Library hosting &#8220;movement &amp; meditation&#8221; classes &#8220;intended for BIPOC seniors 55+.&#8221; Notebooks and writing materials will be provided so you can reflect on your racial identity. <a href="https://t.co/HHu4q7ONPX">pic.twitter.com/HHu4q7ONPX</a>
— Dan Lennington (@DanLennington) <a href="https://twitter.com/DanLennington/status/1514597727845367810?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 14, 2022</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Lennington told The Daily Wire that there is a clear double-standard going on here.
&#8220;If they said, &#8216;This program is intended for White seniors 55+,&#8217; everyone would immediately denounce the program as racist,&#8221; Lennington explained. &#8220;I&#8217;m not sure why the same standard would not apply to the current description of the program.&#8221;
&#8220;In other words, the library is clear that the program is &#8216;not intended&#8217; for White seniors. Wisconsin&#8217;s public-accommodation law prohibits &#8216;unequal treatment,&#8217; and creating a program &#8216;intended&#8217; for one race and not another would violate that principle,&#8221; he argued.
Yet Elias claimed that the event is no different than any other sort of programming the library does with an intended audience in mind.
&#8220;Many of our programs have intended audiences &#8211; seniors, preschoolers, etc.,&#8221; Elias said. &#8220;We are working with the Madison Senior Center to help them explore a new program for older adults, particularly older adults of color, because they experience higher levels of social isolation according to local and national statistics, which leads to poorer health.&#8221;
&#8220;While anyone can come to the program, these neighborhood libraries serve areas with a higher percentage of people of color&#8221; she continued.
&#8220;The language is intended to make our neighborhood seniors, particularly seniors of color, feel welcome at the program,&#8221; she reiterated.
Lennington claimed that the language used to market the event was not clear that it was open to all Madison residents.
&#8220;The Constitution prohibits government institutions, like libraries, from discriminating based on race,&#8221; he said. &#8220;In fact, public-accommodation laws, which have been on the books for decades, require public spaces to be colorblind in how they service the community.&#8221;
&#8220;Madison should follow the Constitution and nondiscrimination laws and make clear that this program is open to all, regardless of race,&#8221; he added.
Lennington also pointed out that this is not the first time that the government in Madison has tried programs that feature racial segregation — even if only intended and not enforced.
For example, a report from the Wisconsin Institute for Liberty and Law recently <a href="https://will-law.org/equity/">noted</a> that in August 2021, &#8220;Madison Metropolitan School District partnered with the City of Madison to offer a program only for &#8216;Black/brown girls in the Madison area entering 9th grade.'&#8221;
&#8220;White girls were not allowed. In a grant application to expand their program, the &#8216;Dear Diary&#8217; organizers explained that their program is &#8216;<a href="https://www.cityofmadison.com/dpced/communitydevelopment/funding/documents/CharlesHamiltonHoustonInstituteYouthEmploymentApp.pdf">rooted in equity&#8217;</a> because everything that Black people &#8216;have learned is acceptable has been rooted in white supremacy,'&#8221; WILL explained.
Still, Elias maintained that this event was not discriminatory.
&#8220;Libraries do a lot of targeted programming &#8211; girl scout/boy scout troop tours, bilingual computer classes, Hmong story times, literacy classes, Donuts with Dads, homeless services outreach, tax assistance, etc. &#8211; where the audience is more narrowly defined, either by a partnership with another community group, or an intent to have audience participants feel comfortable,&#8221; she claimed in an email to The Daily Wire.

Critical Race Yoga? Wisconsin Library Defends Meditative Dance Class Intended For Senior Racial Minorities

Former Democratic donor Ed Buck was sentenced on Thursday to 30 years in federal prison for the deaths of two black men who overdosed while in his home.
Buck, 67, was found guilty last July on nine felony counts, including “maintaining a drug den, distribution of methamphetamine and enticement to cross state lines to engage in prostitution,” the Los Angeles Times <a href="https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2021-07-27/ed-buck-convicted-methamphetamine-overdose-deaths">reported</a> at the time. The meth-related charges carried mandatory minimums of 20 years in prison.
Buck had been exchanging drugs for sexual favors, which led to the overdose deaths of two black men in his West Hollywood, California, apartment. NBC News <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/political-donor-ed-buck-sentenced-30-years-prison-2-overdose-deaths-ho-rcna24481">reported</a> that prosecutors sought a life sentence for Buck, noting that he preyed on the vulnerable to fulfill his sexual fetish.
His defense attorneys, on the other hand, asked for a sentence of less than 25 years, suggesting it could allow for rehabilitation and “would be much preferable to relegating him to death in prison.”
“U.S. District Judge Christina A. Snyder said Thursday in downtown Los Angeles that the sentencing decision was difficult because she had to balance the good Buck did in his life with ‘horrific crimes’ that she called ‘more than just an accident,’” NBC reported.
Buck is known for donating heavily to Democrats, including Hillary Clinton, Ted Lieu, and Adam Schiff. The Times <a href="https://www.latimes.com/projects/ed-buck-donations/">reported</a> last year:
<blockquote>Since the mid 2000s, <a href="https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2019-10-17/ed-buck-west-hollywood-money-donations">Buck has given more than $500,000 to political candidates and causes,</a> almost all of them linked to the Democratic Party. Forty politicians now holding office in California, ranging from Los Angeles City Hall to Congress, have cashed a check from Buck.
Current officeholders have received more than $150,000 from Buck, including Gov. Gavin Newsom, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti, Los Angeles County District Attorney Jackie Lacey and U.S. Reps. Ted Lieu and Adam B. Schiff. Some have returned the money.</blockquote>
The men who died at Buck’s home were 26-year-old Gemmel Moore, who died in July 2017, and 55-year-old Timothy Dean, who died in January 2019. Moore’s mother, LaTisha Nixon, reportedly “questioned whether Buck’s ties to elected officials and differences in race and class influenced the investigation,” the Times <a href="https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2019-09-17/ed-buck-arrested-charged-with-drug-house">wrote</a>.
As The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/democrat-megadonor-ed-buck-convicted-of-exchanging-meth-for-sex-in-fatal-overdose-cases">reported</a> at the time of his conviction, Buck “was arrested and charged in September 2019 with operating a drug house after a third black man nearly died of an overdose on methamphetamines he received from Buck.”
“Ed Buck will never harm anyone else, and I thank God for that,” Joyce Jackson, who traveled with her sister to join victim Dean’s friends at Buck’s trial, said after his conviction. “Our lives matter, our community matters, and just because someone is unhoused, an addict, may be a survival sex worker, or an escort, or HIV positive does not mean their lives don’t matter and we should look the other way when they show up dead in a white Democratic donor’s home.”

After reading that a Washington school district had voted for a policy that some critics said ostensibly encourages administrators to factor in race when disciplining students, former Fox News host and current podcaster Megyn Kelly blasted the district on Tuesday, tweeting succinctly, “Hi! This is 100% illegal.”

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
On March 14, the Clover Park School District board approved the policy in a 3-2 vote. “The district in the suburbs of Tacoma will now use &#8216;culturally responsive discipline&#8217; that encourages school staff to impose disciplinary policies that &#8216;may be adapted to individual student needs in a culturally responsive manner,” <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10663977/Clover-Park-school-district-passes-policy-consider-race-punishing-students.html">The Daily Mail</a>reported, adding, “Critics say the new approach is in effect a race-based disciplinary policy that will encourage harsher or lighter punishments based on a student&#8217;s race, with white students being disciplined more severely.”
KTTH host Jason Rantz <a href="https://mynorthwest.com/3399911/rantz-wa-schools-adopt-race-based-discipline-white-students-get-harsher-punishment/">wrote</a>, “The Clover Park School District debated its new ‘culturally responsive’ student discipline policy. It means student discipline would not be consistent based on conduct. Instead, a school considers a student’s race and background. It would likely offer harsher punishments to white students, even if the conduct is identical to that of a Black or Hispanic student.”
Board President Alyssa Anderson Pearson insisted in a statement to The Daily Mail, “Contrary to recent inaccurate news coverage and social media posts, Clover Park School District’s Student Discipline Policy does not make race a determining factor for administering discipline. It contains no such provision. &#8230; The recent update of our policy is based on a Washington State School Directors Association model policy. It has been adopted by multiple school districts and is in alignment with state law.&#8217;
John Arbeeny, a former deputy mayor of Lakewood, countered in the <a href="https://thesubtimes.com/2022/03/24/letter-cpsd-discipline-policy-a-recipe-for-chaos/">Suburban Times</a>, “So ‘culturally responsive discipline’ is merely a deceptive cover term for ‘racially/ethnically based discipline’ which seeks to ‘even out’ the numbers of disciplinary incidents based upon racial/ethnic populations or some other undefined criteria. It has little to do with group or individual cultural differences (the determination of which is problematic), discipline generally or creating a safe academic environment. I wonder what the public would think if this were explained in plain language: ‘a discipline policy based upon race/ethnicity’?”
He added, “If indeed ‘culturally responsive discipline’ is nothing more than more favorable treatment of some over others based upon race/ethnicity are we not treading upon the US Constitution 14th Amendment, Section 1?”
“No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
Rantz echoed, “The state officially <a href="https://app.leg.wa.gov/WAC/default.aspx?cite=392-400-025">defines</a> ‘culturally responsive’ as ‘knowledge of student cultural histories and contexts, as well as family norms and values in different cultures; knowledge and skills in accessing community resources and community and parent outreach; and skills in adapting instruction to students’ experiences and identifying cultural contexts for individual students.’ In practice, it means favorable treatment of racial minorities. It would likely offer harsher punishments to white students, even if the conduct is identical to that of a Black or Hispanic student.”
Pearson issued a statement saying, “Our district has high standards for student behavior. It is the intention of the school board that discipline policies and procedures be implemented in a manner that supports a positive school environment, maximizes instructional time and increases educational opportunity for all. &#8230; The student discipline process is a learning opportunity for students to improve behavior and contribute to a safe and respectful learning environment.”

‘Hi! This Is 100% Illegal’: Megyn Kelly Slams School District After Critics Say It Will Factor In Race When Disciplining Students

Children at an elementary school in San Antonio, Texas, were reportedly segregated by hair color and shown a Spike Lee film that included graphic autopsy photos.
<a href="https://news4sanantonio.com/news/trouble-shooters/parents-angered-by-segregation-experiment-at-local-elementary-school">News 4 San Antonio</a> spoke to parents who reportedly “say they want their children to learn about racism and civil rights,” but believe that Northside Independent School District “went too far with the segregation experiment and by making children watch a documentary it admits was not age appropriate.” 
The outlet interviewed Mike and Brandi Lininger — parents whose 10-year-old daughter was “was confused and hurt by a classroom experiment in January at Leon Springs Elementary,” according to the report.
“All of the dark-haired kids, the brown- and black-haired kids, were treated as the privileged ones and the blonde-haired and the redhead kids were the ones treated not so nicely,&#8221; Brandi Lininger explained. The couple said teachers told students children in the fair-haired group were less intelligent. The group was intentionally given a game with pieces missing so they could not play and were later forced to clean up after their classmates.
“She was hurt, her friends, and she named to the principal and to district officials, names of her friends that were crying,&#8221; Brandi Lininger continued.
Meanwhile, teachers played a Spike Lee documentary called “4 Little Girls” — which depicts the 1963 bombing of an Alabama church — to fifth graders. The movie contains autopsy photos of the girls’ bodies. Although the teacher claims she skipped the more graphic portions of the documentary, Mike Lininger said that his daughter was indeed exposed to the images: “The things that she said that she skipped over, my daughter was able to describe to us to a ‘T.’ So that night our daughter was unable to go to sleep in our own room; she was scared.”
The school denied News 4 San Antonio’s request for an interview, but confirmed that “the activity and video in question were part of a larger fifth-grade project-based lesson around the inequity of segregation&#8221; — adding that although “the campus did receive positive feedback from several parents,” administrators “recognize the parent’s concerns and agree that the activity and video are not age-appropriate and will not be used again.”
“They send us notes and newsletters about everything else. Your child is going to see The Polar Express and it&#8217;s pajama day on Friday before winter break, and we get no notice that they&#8217;re going to do a social experiment on segregation,&#8221; Brandi Lininger noted to the outlet.
News 4 San Antonio confirmed the Lininger family’s account with another Leon Springs parent, who did not wish to be identified.
The rising popularity of left-wing instruction in public schools — especially Critical Race Theory (CRT) — have motivated many parents to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/south-carolina-lawmakers-introduce-1000-homeschool-tax-credit-bill">seek</a> new educational opportunities for their children. From March 2020 to September 2020 alone, homeschooling rates across the United States grew between 5.4% and 11%.
Daily Wire investigative reporter Luke Rosiak — who has led efforts to uncover the rise of Critical Race Theory in America’s schools — recently published a book entitled <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Race-Bottom-Uncovering-Destroying-Education/dp/0063056720/?tag=governmacco01-20">Race to the Bottom: Uncovering the Secret Forces Destroying American Public Education</a>. The research for the book included submitting more than 100 Freedom of Information Act requests and threatens to do for numerous areas of the country what his reporting on a rape in Loudoun County, Virginia, did there.
